So that's that - all four provinces have no revealed their home jerseys for 2015/16. Leinster were the final province to show their hand. The official launch, by Canterbury, took place on social media, shortly after midday. As flagged in leaked pictures last month, Leinster will sport a predominantly blue jersey that features Canterbury's dipping collar and thick white stripes across the shoulders.

Another thing to debate about down in the pub, and at matches in Thomond Park and the RDS next season.
